RODEO TRAIL 2010

The following is going to be one of the most bizarre collection of stories & scattered thoughts ever put together!Just a few of the fun stories from this summer’s rodeo trail!Enjoy!(Some I wrote this spring…some I filled in today….you are very likely to get motion sickless trying to follow this randomness!If all else fails, look at the pictures & call it good)

Stories are rolling in so fast I have to get these wrote before I forget they ever existed!

(Wrote this tab this spring : ) Coming down off the Rodeo high.Hada great weekend of bucking horses!Worked hard & was busy!I love it!Coming down off the rodeo high tonight.Love when you have a great crew, are surrounded by amazing friends, everything bucks, fans in the stands & it all comes together….aww….SPECTACTULAR!

Don’t get me wrong, I love to come home & sleep in my own bed.But there is a sadness to a rodeo grounds that was once filled with the hustle & bustle …..once everyone has gone home & just the empty trailer tracks remain.

Haven’t wrote in awhile.Been keeping good & busy on the rodeo trail!Love it!David sent me to the Mud Lake & Leadore high school rodeos in the Freightliner.My shifting is getting better.Horses are bucking well & all spring blue skies & sunshine have been following me around.Love that : )

Highlight for me was getting to watch the old mares buck on Sunday!They truly make my heart go pitter patter!
